अवधूतेश्वरलीला (Avadhūteśvara-līlā) — Śiva Tests Indra’s Pride on the Way to Kailāsa
अवधूतस्वरूपोऽभून्नानालीलाकरः प्रभुः । दिगंबरो महाभीमो ज्वलदग्निसमप्रभः
avadhūtasvarūpo'bhūnnānālīlākaraḥ prabhuḥ | digaṃbaro mahābhīmo jvaladagnisamaprabhaḥ
ព្រះអម្ចាស់បានទទួលយករូបអវធូតៈ អ្នកបោះបង់គ្រប់យ៉ាងយ៉ាងខ្ពង់ខ្ពស់; ទោះយ៉ាងណា ព្រះអធិបតីបានលេងលីឡាទេវៈជាច្រើន។ ទ្រង់ស្លៀកមេឃ ជាអ្នកគួរឱ្យភ័យខ្លាចយ៉ាងខ្លាំង ហើយភ្លឺរលោងដូចអគ្គីកំពុងឆេះ។
Suta Goswami (narrating the manifestations of Lord Shiva to the sages of Naimisharanya)
Tattva Level: pati
Shiva Form: Bhairava
It presents Shiva as both the Avadhūta (perfect renunciate) and the divine Lord of līlā, teaching that true liberation arises from inner detachment while recognizing the Lord’s active grace in the world.
The verse emphasizes Saguna Shiva—His visible attributes like sky-clad asceticism and fiery splendor—supporting devotional contemplation (dhyāna) that culminates in realizing the Linga as the sign of the formless Supreme.
Meditate on Rudra’s blazing radiance while repeating the Panchakshara (Om Namaḥ Śivāya), cultivating avadhūta-like vairāgya; this pairs naturally with Shaiva disciplines like vibhūti (tripuṇḍra) and rudrākṣa as supports for steadiness.
